If we define freedom as the condition of acting without compulsion, wouldn’t the only way to spread it be convincing people?
and if we define democracy as a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections wouldn’t them have to vote for our army to go and invade their coutry or wouldn’t them have to grab the power of their country for themself?
timm1776- I hope you realize that you are contradicting yourself or maybe not contradicting but saying that the end justify the means. As long the end result is freedom and democracy we can spread it in anyway.
